Setting the Resolution The resolutions for DC/AC voltage and resistance measurements are given
in Table 4-5 on page 92. Note that the resolution is specified in the units of
the measurement (volts, ohms), and not as a percentage of the measurement.
When a resolution is specified the aperture time and integration time are set
accordingly. For example, specifying a range of 232 Ω and a resolution of
0.976 mΩ sets a 2.5 ms aperture time and 0.125 PLC of integration time.
The commands used to specify resolution are:
MEASure:measurement?
[range|AUTO|DEF|MIN|MAX[,
resolution|DEF|MIN|MAX]][,(@channel_list)]
CONFigure:
measurement
[range|AUTO|DEF|MIN|MAX[,
resolution|DEF|MIN|MAX]][,(@channel_list)]
VOLTage:RESolution
resolution | MIN | MAX
RESistance:RESolution
resolution | MIN | MAX
where:
resolution = value from Table 4-5 on page 92 (for the corresponding range).
DEF = defaults the resolution. This sets 1 PLC of integration time.
MIN = sets the smallest resolution number in the table (best resolution) for
the specified range.
MAX = sets the largest resolution number in the table (worst resolution)
for the specified range.
Note When autoranging, MIN or MAX are the only resolution settings which can
be specified.
Querying the
Resolution
The resolution is queried with the following commands. See Chapter 5 for
additional information.
VOLTage:RESolution?
VOLTage:RESolution? MIN | MAX
RESistance:RESolution?
RESistance:RESolution? MIN | MAX
Executing CONFigure? returns the resolution, range, and measurement
function set by the
CONFigure command.
